Problem

Mettalex’s documentation relied heavily on static technical diagrams, which made it difficult for first-time users to quickly understand complex workflows and system interactions. Users had to spend extra time interpreting diagrams, increasing cognitive load and slowing onboarding.


Goal

To improve clarity, engagement, and comprehension by transforming static diagrams into lightweight animated GIFs that visually explain processes step-by-step.
